“We stayed on a summer weeknight and had a great experience! The grounds are beautiful with tons of photo opportunities and peaceful walking trails. We stayed in the Carriage House—very clean rooms with their own parking, and just a short, easy walk to the main hotel. The complimentary breakfast buffet for guests was a highlight—especially the made-to-order omelettes, which were absolutely delicious! The shops on-site are super cute, and the pool and playgrounds kept the kids happily entertained. A relaxing, family-friendly getaway—we’d definitely stay again!“

“We enjoyed dinner for the first time here. The atmosphere is so fun. You eat dinner inside a real train! They also have outside seating. We enjoyed watching the Strasburg railroad train go by, pet the animals (outside at the barn), amazing staff, fun gift shop and absolutely incredible food! We have not had such an incredible meal in a long time at a restaurant.“

“Had the best time at Reflections Restaurant to celebrate my dads retirement. I have a almost three year old with that said this place was just so nice going in at 3pm - we had a little area to ourselves and the food was amazing. I never order a pork chop anywhere as well ya... lol but thanks to this page ans what i read on reviews it was by far the best meal i had in a long time. My girl ordered the pizza didnt touch any of it as she was too busy eating my pork chop and her grand parents yummy meat loaf and truffle mac and cheese All of us left stuffed and happy It was just too darn yummy ! Thanks for the memories -“

She is so friendly had such a welcoming and amazing personality! She was hands down fantastic!!! These people are fantastic and amazing we appreciated them so much!!! Thank you so much Hunter, Missy, and Emily.“

“This is our very favorite restaurant, however due to a very large crowd this evening, we had to sit at the bar. It was nice at first. But our waitress/bartender was a bit rude to us and didn't even check on how our meals came out, offer more beverages, refills and did not offer dessert. We usually tip very well but didn't this time. The crowd had really dispersed by the time we had our meals so there was really no excuse for the bad service. We will continue to go back of course becasue we love it there but hoping for a better experience.“

“I came here for a trivia night event and had the Sea-duction with a side of green beans and a baked potato. The seafood was tender and well-seasoned. I especially enjoyed the broiled flounder. The baked potato was cooked just right and came with butter and sour cream. I absolutely loved the seasoning on the green beans and they were tender without being overcooked. The service was prompt and friendly, especially with the business of the evening. The dining area was open with an inviting ambiance. I would come back again and sample some more of their menu in the future!“

“The cocktails and food were superb. Every member of the staff that we encountered was friendly and helpful. An overall delightful dining experience and atmosphere. We can’t wait to come back.“

“My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at this quaint pub with its sports bar feel. From its delectable beer menu to its delicious pub style food menu, everything was done well! We loved the staff who were very welcoming and engaging. We received recommendations and tastings! Best of all, the prices are reasonable. I would highly recommend eating and chilling here alone, with friends, with family, or with your boo.“

“Everyone here is pleasant. There are a lot of activities here for the residents. I come here to help some clients and they all love it here.“

“Penley's Pub is a recent addition to Dutch Wonderland. It's the first restaurant inside the park that serves alcohol and they have a great selection of local beers. They also have a few food options focusing on pretzels and sausages. The prices are decent given that it's inside an amusement park.“

“We come from Maryland to go to Dottie's Snack Bar. We missed them when they were closed. We are so glad they are back and still as a family run small business. My favorite thing is a strawberry sundae. The ice cream is great! So are the steak subs. Welcome back Dottie's.“

“My husband and I recently enjoyed dinner at this restaurant using a coupon for a free appetizer with two entrees from the Inn and Spa at Intercourse. My husband had Beef Tips and a lovely salad. I had Linguine with Grilled Vegetables. We started our meal with bacon wrapped scallops. Our food was served hot, tasted very good, and was beautifully presented. We also had old fashioneds served by the bar. Overall, our dining experience was very pleasant. The staff were friendly from the bartender to our waitress, Abigail. We would definitely return when in the area again.“

“Outstanding service. Excellent Diner style food, served hot. Follow the locals and you cant go wrong .“

“The three of us went for a late lunch and even though we had to wait about 20-25 minutes to get a seat, the staff for the most part were really friendly. One of the waitresses has been there for a long time and is always super friendly to my mom and I. Food came out fairly quickly and tasted wonderful“

“We had a group of 28 for dinner and drinks. The staff handled our group like pros! Yes, we had a little extra wait time with such a large group which was to be expected, but the crew was on top of our drink service and checked back frequently to follow up on our needs. No easy task serving so many at once- Carmen and Johanna were on top of things and Jess was thrown into the fire with it being her first night on the job - you would have never known.! Everyone was happy with their meals, great food and friendly service.
The complimentary pretzel bites are always a favorite!“

“We had an excellent meal here. I especially enjoyed the fried chicken but everything I had was delicious.“

“Spring/summer/early fall Friday night live band nights are always fun. Recently discovered the Birds Nest Deck to watch the Eagles games and I won’t watch them anywhere else now. I believe there has been a change of ownership since the past (2021) and I definitely think they are moving in the right direction.“

“I was there to celebrate my birthday with a friend and we had a wonderful evening. Matthew was our server. He was wonderful and attentive. We had the Alaskan cod and it did not disappoint. We love Gibraltar's . It's my family's go to place for special occasions and just for a night out of good dining. The owner is amazing and the staff is always informative, kind and attentive.“

“My husband and I were on a small getaway and discovered this treasure. I am an ice cream lover and must tell you that this is hands down the BEST ice cream I ever had. My husband profoundly agrees! He wanted to go again before we left but it wasn’t possible. We’re already trying to plan another trip down just to go to Fox Meadows. Also, the staff was so friendly. The you g woman who waited on us was extremely friendly and provided us samples to try. Since it was our first visit we were also given a free beverage each! We 💯 percent recommend!!!!!“

“Love this restaurant! The crap cakes are so good! So much crab meat!! The grilled steak kabobs are the best! It quickly became one of my favorite restaurants!“

“Walked in 40 minutes before close and was rushed to place our order and felt rushed to eat while being stared at so the staff could close up. The saving grace was how awesome the food was. Best fries I've had in a very long time. I had a turkey reuben that was amazingly crispy and had perfectly balanced flavors. My sister had a burger that looked amazing and my friend had fish and chips. All the food was incredibly hot.“

“Parking: Arthur's Terrace Restaurant is located in The Eden Resort Hotel, Best Western, Eden Road, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where there is plenty of parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant is located in a hotel where there is a hotel lobby.“

“Had Lunch there on 12-9-2025 before the American Music Theatre Christmas Show. Started with the sharable cinnamon rolls and was glad we did those things were delicious. Save the juice for your rolls. Everyone's meal came out in a timely manner and the food was hot. The breaded chicken breasts were also good and would definitely get them again. wished you would bring back the Caesar salad.“

“This was our first visit to the Fulton Steamboat Inn after a family recommended it—and it was such a fun experience! I mean, who wouldn’t want to sleep on a steamboat? The rooms have so much charm and felt slightly updated while still keeping that cozy, themed feel. Everything was super clean, and the grounds were beautifully maintained. The kids loved the playground and pool, and we all enjoyed strolling around the little lake—especially spotting all the baby ducks! The only downside was that breakfast isn’t included. We didn’t try the on-site restaurant, but there are plenty of great local spots nearby. Overall, a fun and memorable stay—highly recommend!“

“Cute little shop. Very good pretzels. Had the cinnamon sugar and it was delish and warm. Husband had the garlic and he said it had good flavor but very garlic and my daughter had regular with cheese sauce and said it was good. The girls workimg where nice and efficient. The place is very clean and smells amazing. Would go again when up this way.“

“We come to this restaurant often when we are in Pa camping. We love their Crab Bisque and shrimp special that is served on Thursday's. It's really good! Going tonight to try their pot pie. Great place to check out when in the area.“

“I held a private luncheon on a Saturday afternoon for 30 people. Mick responded promptly when I made an online inquiry. The room and food were prepared to perfection. The service was excellent, the room and tables were clean, and the food was delicious. It was nice to have the outdoor area for the little kids to get a break and play. We had reserved the room for two hours, and some guests were slow to leave. The staff was patient and did not rush us out the door. I highly recommend Mick’s in Willow Street.“

“So good, food was fast and fresh.“

“I only recently tried Mick's and I loved it. Love the pizza in particular. Typically, when I try a restaurant with only one or two items I will eat. As someone with severe food sensory issues, I love that there are so many items on the menu that I can eat! Pizza is my go-to but I am branching out and trying other dishes. I haven't tried anything I didn't like yet. Loving the Shepherds Pie today!!!“

“Good food and atmosphere.“

“While I like most of Stoltzfus’s items, I’ve been disappointed in their chicken salad. It used to be a staple in our home but seems like they’ve changed the recipe. It’s now so runny with mayo (or whatever they use) that it plops right off our sandwiches. They’ve also seem to cut back on the celery which added a nice contrasting crunch. Please bring back the old recipe.“

“I really like everthing I have ever bought at Zigs, my problem is the service, you can be at counter waiting for service an the servers will just walk past you.“

“I went there with a group of 6. Easy reservations just a few hours earlier, good food, cool decor. We were in the indoor dining room on first floor. Very loud group next to us, so towards the end of our dining conversation had become nearly impossible. Good reviews on their soda bread, shepherd's pie, and classic fish & chips! Definitely recommend their cheesesteak egg rolls as well!“

“Great food, friendly staff, and the salad bar has pickled eggs and beets.👍👍 We live in the suburbs of Harrisburg and we stop there to eat when we visit the area about 2x a month. Keep up the good work.“

“We got General tos, Cajun, hot, and sudden death for an extra $10 which equates to $16.25 for 5 wings . Sudden death wings are extremely hot & impossible to eat more than one . It tastes good , but you can barely taste them due to how hot they are . They definitely are NOT worth the extra money at all & I do not recommend them . However, the other wings were Delicious! Our favorites out of the 4 was hot . It’s a very tasty hot sauce & not a typical hot sauce . They were nice & crispy and pick up was a breeze . Thank you guys so much, but you can keep those sudden death wings 😂“

“The service was quick and very pleasant. Your coffee was some of the best I’ve drank and your black bean brownie was better than a regular one!! My grandson enjoyed it and never knew the difference ❤️ An eclectic, homey, well priced coffee and eatery. Lots of options for vegan and gluten free. Will definitely be back!“

“Eat here almost everyday! Food and Service are great!“
